Akal Academy Dhotian prepares the students to be Well-Equipped in Modern World. Mixing technology in the classroom supports learning and builds students’ confidence. It gives students a sense of purpose and their attitude toward their education becomes positive.

A computer laboratory enhances the learning environment at school & helps in developing the personality of the child to face the modern world. Technology is of the greatest value to teachers when it is available in the classroom. Technology is an information vehicle that challenges elementary students intellectually by giving them immediate access to information online. The only way in which learners can attain digital literacy is by having hands-on experience with computer equipment. Rural schools have limited access to computer equipment and limited technology in the classroom may not give learners an opportunity to use it to the extent that they can build computer skills. A computer room allows learners to become comfortable in the use of computer equipment.

Drill-and-practice exercises can be given to learners, honing numeracy and mathematical abilities. On-line assessment is a great time saver for teachers. Learners can visit the computer room after hours to engage in e-learning courses or do revision of notes which are available in digital format – each learner at his or her own pace.

Teachers are encouraged to bring technology into their classrooms.

Gurdwara Fatehgarh Sahib which is situated 5 km north of Sirhind marks the sad site of the execution of the two younger sons of Guru Gobind Singh at the behest of Wazir Khan of Kunjpura, the faujdar of Sirhind. Baba Fateh Singh with his elder brother, set a precedence in Sikh history (and perhaps also in world history) by becoming the youngest known martyrs to sacrifice their lives for their principles.

The Students of all age groups showed their dedication & love for the Youngest Martyrs in the Sikh History. Chote Sahibzaade were brutually imprisoned in the open tower (Thanda Burj) in the freezing month of December, their radiant faces show no pain or regret at their unwavering decision to uphold Sikhi at all costs.
